Bandai 5063143 - HG 1/144 PMX-001 Palace Athene Model Kit - Titans Era Replica  [B-5063143]

Building the PMX-001 Palace Athene for Display

The PMX-001 Palace Athene from Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam is reproduced in detailed 1/144 High Grade form. Bandai's runner layout and part separation make prep work straightforward, while the kit's proportions remain faithful to the source material. It is a solid choice for modellers wanting a display-friendly Gunpla.

Sculpt and Movement

The model features articulate joints that allow a variety of stances without sacrificing stability. Key pivot points at the shoulders and hips give convincing limb movement, and segmented parts help highlight panel detail once painted or panel-lined.

Tools and Skill Recommendation

This kit is best for those who have handled a few HG builds. Recommended kit tools are side cutters, a hobby knife and sanding paper or files to clean up connection points for a neat finish.

Painting and Weathering Advice

While parts often fit well out of the box, light sanding and precise panel lining will lift the detail. Applying decals carefully and adding subtle weathering will produce a more lived-in look that suits the Titans aesthetic.

The Bandai HG PMX-001 Palace Athene is a compact but satisfying build that rewards careful assembly and finishing. It makes a distinctive addition to any Gunpla display.
